Gestural mark making – with Noela Mills

A workshop using inks, gelli plates and your imagination

Saturday 22nd May - 9.30am - 4.00pm

In this mono-printing workshop, you will explore new ways to free up your creativity by letting go of traditional ‘rules and regulations’ typical of mainstream printmaking. By using gelli plates, and a variety of inks and everyday tools and equipment, you will create exciting, spontaneous images and marks. You can tackle abstract compositions with confidence or add a bit of context with a pictorial touch.
